Chapter 678 The Descent of a Conspiracy (1/2)



Although the Da Nu Kingdom is the most powerful tribal nation in the northern grasslands, it is often in a state of war preparedness, and its expenses and needs are also very large.

Therefore, they need to open source to increase revenue.

The most abundant resources of tribal states are horses, cattle, sheep, and pastures. They provide livestock and fodder to other states, which becomes their main source of national revenue.

In particular, the Da Nu Kingdom is the largest exporter of livestock and fodder. They sell not only horses for civilian use, but also military horses and warhorses.

Over the past few months, many merchant caravans from other countries have arrived one after another, carrying orders from high-ranking nobles of their respective countries, requesting to purchase around a thousand warhorses.

Generally speaking, purchasing several thousand warhorses would alert the Da Nu Kingdom, which would send people to investigate, examining the relationship with the purchasing country, its current activities, and the distance between the two nations.

If the fine horses sold end up as weapons against the Da Nu Kingdom, it would be like digging a hole for oneself.

However, purchasing a few hundred to two thousand warhorses was a common transaction.

There have been quite a few caravans arriving recently, but they are scattered across different countries, and many have come from afar. The Da Nu Kingdom has no suspicions, and is simply happy to receive box after box of gleaming silver.

Unexpectedly, tens of thousands of warhorses suddenly appeared in the Great Swamp Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Da Nu sent people to Da Ze Kingdom to investigate secretly, and the results confirmed that the warhorses were indeed imported from the Kingdom of Da Nu.

"Outrageous! They're really outrageous! How dare they play us like this? Isn't this blatant provocation?" Zhenyou, the big man, was so angry that he pounded his chest and stamped his feet, cursing loudly.

So much silver no longer seemed appealing; instead, it felt like a serious threat.

Beside the long table, the nobles and nobles who sat on the ground were all red-faced and cursing. They slammed their fists on the table, smashed their wine cups on the ground, and some even stood up, drew their swords and brandished them.

This feeling is more humiliating than defeat.

Seeing the Khan and his ministers like this, Mutai sneered inwardly. As expected of a tribe that had never been educated since ancient times, they lost their composure like monkeys and apes when faced with setbacks. No wonder they were being played with by him.

He made these people accept Chinese culture, but it was all in vain.

"Mutai, why aren't you saying anything? Could it be that you're working in cahoots with the Great Swamp Kingdom to help them obtain the warhorses from the Da Nu Kingdom?"

One minister said.

Khan Zhenyou's gaze also turned towards Mutai.

Mutai placed his hand on his chest and bowed in respect.

"Great Khan, in the Great Swamp Kingdom, we bribed merchant caravans from various countries and obtained official noble warrants from them. Over several months, we gradually purchased tens of thousands of warhorses. This was a test of patience and something we hadn't anticipated."

"Now all these warhorses belong to one person's army, and that person is Princess Feiluan. A few years ago, the tribe marched south and was on the verge of a great victory, but in the end they suffered a defeat. The main reason was the formation she used."

"She rose through the ranks thanks to her military achievements, transforming herself from an unknown country girl into a highly sought-after princess."

"This woman has always been cunning. This time, she has also used trickery to steal warhorses from the Da Nu Kingdom for her own use. It seems that she intends to train a powerful and excellent cavalry force. Combined with her formations, she will surely become a major threat to the Da Nu Kingdom in the future."

“Your humble servant was forced to this place and almost had nowhere to go. It was the Crown Prince there who colluded with her to cause trouble. Your humble servant wished he could tear her to pieces. How could I possibly collude with her?”
